Host was extremely responsive to my questions. If you have a large car you will have to park in front of the main house on the main street and walk around the block to the entrance of the unit. The parking space next to the unit is in a narrow alleyway and is very small. I think this should be more apparent on the listing. Other than that, the unit was perfect for what I needed, and I appreciated the responsiveness of the host.

Small and tucked into Historic Lakeland, this place is very nice. There is plenty of parking around and beautiful scenery, especially the swans at Lake Morton! The hosts are very kind and are quick to respond to any requests or feedback that you may have. I stayed here for a month and the kitchen and washer/dryer were extremely helpful. The neighbors that I met were also very kind, which was an added plus in a new place. I definitely would recommend this place for anyone visiting the area.
